I'd like to point out when I put try anonymizer it wasn't to hide your ip from your isp. That's to hide it from people likethe riaa who for some strange reason tuesday were trying to connect to my computer on emule of all places. Anonymizer stops your ip from being viewed that way by them. Your isp as long as you're not download illegal porn or something doesn't really give a shit.
why o why would she tell them that she is downloading movies from kazaa?!
The letter is a well known hoax, don't believe a word of it. If you are buying in, you are being scammed. :huh:
first of all, IMHO if the movie and cinema industry wasn't so damn greedy and the prices of movie rentals and movie's in the cinema's were lower, then probably half of us wouldn't feel the need to D/L movies off of kazaa or whereever! 2) that goes without saying the music industy is so damn greedy that the artist aren't getting what they deserve for thier recordings, and the fabricators of cd's is charging double what it costs to make the cd's. of coarse there will always be people that want everything for free but thats another story. the way I feel is that the movie and music industries want to take me for a ride then I'll take em for a ride too! and thats jsut my 2cents. :lol:
OK Mr. Jibbler,
You say it's a hoax? call them up on Monday morning here is the number,
2129259997
i just did and got the voice mail saying that they are the leading anti internet piracy company,intelligent comments are accepted here but not nonsense and this letter is definitely not a hoax. why is it so hard for you to imagine a company scouring kazaa on behalf of a major film company?
for columbia its not such a big investment compared to how much they invested in the film and i guarantee you that many people have stopped sharing it because they got this letter. Anyone who thinks this letter is fake is living in a dream world. Come back to reality guys, as much as it is fun and easier than going to the movies it is still illegal from where the film companies are standing. Doesnt stop me from doing it though, I suppose thats the advantage of living in this Brave New World

If you look regular in this section you'll find many similar topics.
By viewing it then from a broader perspective it boils down to
a new form of spam :lawyer-generated spam !!
Since you live in a different country I wouldn't worry in the least.
They are hardly going to extradite ppl for things like this' :lol:
ok so you live in israel! so we shouldnt be worried over here (im in canada). i didnt even know production companies monitered things like that. how did they do it, anyways, if the isp didnt find it first?Quote:

Z,
I actually live in Israel.
And it may surprise you to know that with regards to the internet over here things are very liberal and open. Our ISP would never have done any thing about this kind of problem if they hadn't received the letter from the film company. You know I get unlimited Broadband (1.5MB) for about $80 a month which is quite cheap considering i could dl as many gigs a day as i want
how they did it is very simple. They started to download Anger Management and they recorded every different ip sharing it and probably are still doing the same thing, jumping from node to node and writing the same letter to millions of isp's. Come to think of it it's a great idea for making a business :D anyone interested? B)
wow. i wouldnt think they would even waste time with that crap. does your isp even care?
LOL this is hilarious, they have gotten "professional" about it. its a JOKE, ignore it, dont respond, its happening to everyone, my friend has gotten 4 of them and hasn't responded, its just mail bombing. NOT REAL, its too scare you, my friend received his on his work PC and he has never downloadedeven legal mp3's let along KMD or Kazaa, IRC (any file sahring thing) never even downloaded anything but recaived emails, on his work account and he stll received this, i got one on my TAFE email account saying that they had tracked me using "ėmule" to download games and i havent ever used any p2p or downloaded anything at all except Trailers(legal files) from websites, PLUS< wheres the proof, my friend from TAFE tried using IRC on a Tafe PC and it doesnt even work, so they have nothing against me. so its all a load of CRAP> dont reply, just block them and leave it at that.
